#HOW DOES THAT EVEN GET INFECTED

[sysig]

Ah, childhood memories (Patreon)

#Doodles #UT #Handplates #Sans #Gaster #Having such clear external-view memories of what happened when they were young would probably give Sans a lot of ammunition lol #Not that they'd know any different - their poor memories honestly :( - but having such clear memories in places would have to be weird #Most people have childhood amnesia to an extent! Tho it's hard to say when that would've applied to them anyway with their sped-up growth #Not to mention the trauma #And it's possible that doesn't apply to Monsters to begin with lol - but it's all a moot point anyway since these are their only memories! #It's sad to think of how much of themselves are missing forever since Gaster didn't experience them :( #This is what happens when you get behind on your work >:0 #I really wonder what their lack of memories/restoration of memories would do for their like/dislike of certain things! #Like how Papyrus says that sitting with Sans in his lap makes a lot of sense as to why it was so familiar and comforting #But also that knowing makes it sad as well :( Knowing recolours their understanding and interpretation! #Knowing Why makes things make sense but does it actually Help? It's a tough question - certainly it hurts in the moment #The little things Gaster has infected for them and for himself ♥ Like taking notes! Like chess and sweets and spaghetti and lab coats #And dark sweaters and cigarette smoke and hugs and intelligence - how many pieces of all of them have A Feeling attached #How many more have A Memory - and even more than that A Memory Lost and unrecoverable ughhh ♥ #But the little things they can hold on to hehe <3 Like pinging Gaster for what they all know and remember #Why does he even keep coming over if he knows the reception he'll get? Lol #Feels particularly self-loathing and goes to get bullied as penance pfft

okay still on the topic of piercings i currently have the most ATROCIOUSLY infected helix and for the life of me i cannot get the godforsaken jewellery out. i literally bought nylon gloves from home bargains today and im now covered in blood and NO CLOSER TO GETTING IT THE FUCK OUT

#pissed off. the girl i did my law a-level with works at my local piercing shop and ive fully messaged her #like heyyyyy girlie. are you open tomorrow i know it's flooded everywhere but pls pls pls #i mean in the grand scheme it really isnt a bad infection it's a very normal infection and given ive never had a single piercing get #infected before when i know some people whose bodies just reject them every single time i know ive gotten off pretty lucky #but that just means im even more dramatic when it does happen. like i know we know what we're doing at this point come the fuck on #i do like telling people that it's bc it's my american piercing tho. got a piercing one (1) time at somewhere that was not only #not my regular haunt but also in AMERICA and it gets infected. didnt do anything different than any of my others #americans dont know how to pierce ears. it's the only conclusion we can come to given the extensive evidence. sad but true #hella goes home

i realize a lot of people tend to over-characterize wesker and completely disregard some of his main personality traits. (long post that’s not rlly organized read at ur own risk lol)

i’ll often see videos/edits about him and a lot of people will say something along the lines of

“he’d instantly kill me” (read this on a thirst post LMAO)

“he’d threaten to kill me if i ever spoke to him”

“wesker would kill all of us if he found out we were simping for him”

and that always really confused me? knowing wesker’s character i feel like people would know he doesn’t kill people unless he really has to. there are few moments where he does kill and they’re mainly because he has to/has real reason behind it.

in reality, he likely wouldn’t kill you instantly, especially if you simply weren’t a threat. who cares if you simp for him? he sure doesn’t. even if you were a threat, he’d send out other people to take care of you first and if he had a confrontation with you he surely wouldn’t take you seriously (i highly doubt y’all mfs know how to fight i’m sorry 😭)

you wanna know why wesker fought chris in the first place? he thought it was amusing and didn’t even take it seriously. the whole time he just messed around, clearly not trying to kill him. he literally tells chris he has 7 minutes to fuck with him like he’s got a strict schedule. dude was not taking any of that seriously. he took a phone call because chris and sheva were so irrelevant to him. they were considered ‘threats’ but clearly not enough to him for him to really care. he has enough confidence in his own abilities to know he could take care of something if they really posed a threat to him.

it’s actually surprising how people make out wesker to be this ruthless angry killer who doesn’t put up with anything when in reality he’s just a goofy little comic book villain who has the zoomies half the time.

we have visual proof of a wesker simp trying to fuck him (excella) and him simply using them before killing them. keep in mind he put up with her for 5~ whole years.

moral of the story, no he wouldn’t threaten you or actually kill you the moment you spoke a word to him. that’s seriously out of character for him and i’m not sure why after seeing him in so many games that people will automatically assume that he’d do that. he’s capable of fighting but clearly prefers to use his charm.

#plus he’s fucked like #who’s to say he wouldn’t fuck all of us huh (i’m delusional) #it’s funny how people overestimate wesker because it’s not in his ability to do anything else #it’s literally just for when he encounters people #i remember seeing a commend on yt like ‘if wesker met jake he’d kill him’ #like jake isn’t his SON and doesn’t have his genes ?? LMAO #why would he kill the person closest to him in genetics when he’d likely survive if infected with uroboros #yes jake isn’t particularly fond of what he did #but wesker doesn’t even know jake either #and when he does find out that’s his son why would he just get rid of that potential ?? #sorry i just don’t get why people think he’d instantly kill people in any situation #it doesn’t make sense considering he’s super good at manipulating people and using them 🤷‍♀️

it was all going too well for me i think

#have to pull out of an exam tomorrow and all my classes this week #bc of my fucking KIDNEY? just? decided to get infected? how does that even happen #and and and. i just wanna write and lay on my sofa but bro it’s exam szn so i gotta like? do my coursework #guess i’m gonna have some free time tho so send me thoughts n shit i need the power of brainrot

*kicks down your door* i just rewatched Train to Busan aND WAAAH MY MIND IMMEDIATELY WENT BACK TO YOUR ZOMBIE AU will zombie mob become human again bcs i'm seriously hurting for ritsu THAT BOY NEEDS A HUG (also also, give zombie mob some milk too, i think he deserves it 😔)

- 🪻

OOOO i've never watched train to busan !! just looked it up it looks inchresting

and yes !! absolutely yes they find a way to cure him eventually. haven't thought abt the actual process too much, but it takes a long while, and he's never rly the same afterward

he doesn't just magically turn back to being a healthy human—there are things that stay with him well beyond the curing. some of his speech is slower, and muddled. definitely a lot of nerve damage, and his sense of pain is forever fucked up. sometimes i think it'd take a bit for a concept to click in his head, even if it seems simple

i've changed it a bit since i last talked abt it i think ? but it's very easy for zombies to die from sleep deprivation bc they never feel tired. something in their brains has simply gone offline, so the signals we typically get that tell us to rest are nonexistent here. a zombie will quite literally keep walking until it collapses and dies from exhaustion. after mob is cured, those signals are still absent and he'll stay up for days simply bc he doesn't feel tired, so he has to follow a strict schedule

overall he's never quite the same as before, zombie or no. that same exact mob from before the apocalypse will Never be here again, but ritsu doesn't mind that so much. he gets his brother back, even if some chunks are rusty or malfunctioning. he can hold a conversation with his brother again, and he's never been happier. unluckiest, luckiest kid alive.

#qktalks #anon #zombie au #i also think it's quite terrifying for ritsu when they first meet the doctors that help them #bc since mob is prolly the longest-living zombie any of these doctors have ever seen #it's a bit of a guessing game on how deep the infection truly is in him. they're in the dark here #they're applying a cure that's never been tested on zombies This ''old'' #on the other hand tho mob is also probably the healthiest zombie they've ever seen ! #bc.well. he had care and help. and his wounds weren't left open for bacteria to fester.he was taken care of. lovingly‚ too #and they prolly find that his brain is quite active for a zombie ! most zombies aren't talked to or asked questions or interacted with #but ritsu (and later‚ the others) talked to him all the time. and mob got to get his gears churnin w replies even if they were gibberish #kept his brain active ! and also simply made him happier #so it's sorta . his status as the ''oldest'' zombie versus his shockingly good health #on whether or not he'd survive the cure #he does tho! and u bet ur ass the first sentence that comes outta mob's mouth that isn't gibberish is smth ritsu will burst into tears over #he's finally got him back.after all that :]

[softpine]

what if i said finn was bill and asa was frank................ what then........................

#THE HOLD THEY HAVE ON ME #it's about showing someone the beauty of life 😭 it's about helping someone LIVE after so many years of just surviving 😭 #no but really i'm looking at my apocalypse AU ideas (written long before this show) and i'm like.. okay! that's literally bill and frank! #finn is living alone in the wilderness when asa wanders by and gets injured by a trap finn set up to catch food #but he's worried asa is infected so he leaves him in the trap for a few days and they get to talking #and finn cooks for him <3 even though it literally pains him to try to put together a vegan meal in the fucking end of the world <3 #and that's how asa knows there's something more because if finn didn't give a shit about him he wouldn't go out of his way like that #when asa proves he's not infected he actually does leave for one night but finn can't sleep he's too worried about him so he tracks him down #''it's too easy. you're like bigfoot.'' ''but.. bigfoot is notoriously not easy to find.'' lmao #ANYWAY ANYWAYYYY that's just my fun little story that i think about when i'm bored #i watched episode 3 again with my best friend and i'm legit torn up #nonsims #tlou spoilers

[fckyaas]

Princess Tutu had a surprisingly great ending. It's almost cathartic for a story that's about stories and endings to stories to have a pretty good ending itself.

#princess tutu #(spoilers) still would have wanted tutu to confess her love to fakir and turn into a speck of light #but thats kinda morbid of me. its defintiely better that she gets to stay alive as her true duck self lol #and the story is in good hands now (fakir's)...i guess???? #i really enjoyed the meta themes in this anime. so much relatable stuff for a story writer #so true drosselmayer! your characters do indeed just whatever they feel like sometimes and surprise YOU with where they take the story!!! #im pretty sure fakir has a crush on tutu and he can write stories now so i suppose he could make her a girl somehow xD #altho that would be contradicting what he told her about just existing as yourself.... #overall its the perfect ending while remaining internally consistent. fakir was never meant to pick up a sword and would have died in vain #just because the story infected his town. he was always supposed to be a writer and now he is. and ahiru was always supposed to be a duck #so #AND OMG RIGHT THE ED....SO ITS HIS REFLECTION ON THE WATER RIGHT #im glad rue got her happy ending because she deserves it after all the suffering. and i even forgave mytho for being so boring for 80% #of the story. he somehow made up for it in the end #i love fakir the most tho. that character is layered and changed so much throughout the story its insaaane. a sweetheart too 🥺 #but i basically liked everybody except mytho LOL i was so frustrated in the kraehe parts because i felt like rue was being done dirty #and i was rooting for rue 😭 plus ahiru of course is so cute and lovable #anyways. super wild. loved how everything had to be dancing and the ''stage-like'' scenes and the music omfg #and the damn cat teacher lmao #As a writer princess tutu spoke to me.... I'm touched by this story; as a writer. It really does things to you on multiple levels like that #fakir can only write if its about ahiru...🥲 is this what its like to have a muse??? is this what i need to finally move #forward as a writer??? 😭😭

Love having talks with my parents (/s) where they tell me I "need to stop living in fear and get back out in the world" and that they haven't stopped living because of COVID and they don't even mask and it's fine because they got it once and it was just like allergies to them and "it's not even that bad it's just like the flu or a cold", ignoring that I also have had COVID before and was in the most extreme all over pain I have been in EVER in my entire chronically ill chronic pain suffering life for over a week to the point that I was mentally begging the universe to just let me die toward the end of it so it would finally be over and am now left with significantly worse chronic fatigue, chronic pain, and heart issues than I had already before because of long COVID. Also my sense of taste and smell have still not fully recovered, which is a sign of lasting neurological damage.

But it's just fearmongering, clearly, and I'm just falling for government propaganda (even though the government has said COVID is over and that we don't need to take precautions anymore because they value profit over human lives). Sure. Makes sense.

#they also told me i dont need to get boosters because they dont do anything anyway #and that getting covid makes your immune system strong enough to not get it again #which IS LITERALLY THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT ALL THE SCIENCE SAYS #covid is literally leaving people's immune systems looking like HIV and AIDS patients #and getting infected DOES NOT provide lasting immunity AT ALL #and even mild and asymptomatic cases can cause serious lasting immune system damage #BUT I'M JUST LIVING IN FEAR #me going out and seeing people will surely be worth it if i get covid again and fucking die #or become even more permanently disabled than i already am #and im already so disabled i cant work anymore or take care of myself without help #but sure #suuuuuure #MY MOM USED TO WORK FOR A MEDICAL COMPANY HOW DID WE GET HEEEERRRREE #the anti-vax anti-medicine propaganda is just being eaten the fuck up by the older generations huh #rant #vent #ndr #not dog related

[tottwritesfanfic]

So I had a random burst of inspiration, and made the mistake of looking over my old HQ apocalypse AU yesterday, and... Well, it's not that I don't love it, because I do, and at the moment I badly wanna get back to writing it again, but...

The thing is, when I started it, the manga was... I think still on the Nekoma/Fukurodani Tokyo arc? We'd barely even met Nohebi.

So now, I'm looking at the setup for this ensemble fic which is, fundamentally, more about how mostly they all escape and rebuild society together against the odds than it is specifically an apocalypse thing, and I'm just thinking:

"Oh no but what about everyone else?"

Like...This is a very Karasuno/Nekoma heavy fic, which is fine, and I already have like, a plan for what happens to Seijoh and Shiratorizawa, but...but there are so many more teams now??? Not to mention all the freaking family members we now know to exist.

So. I'm just sorta having a crisis at the moment about what I do. Because even though it's an apocalypse AU and people absolutely die, there's kinda...less of that than you'd think (it's mostly OCs who peg it). But equally, it feels like... would people be sitting there thinking "wow this sure is convenient then" if basically I just turned this into "hoo boy it sure seems like volleyball players inherited the earth, isn't that neat!"

#progress update #my fanfiction #dangers unseen. #this is the triffid au btw #so I'm sitting here all #oh no but does X go blind?? #how do they live? #who gets eaten by evil plants??? #also i'm not saying this is another moment of sakuatsu brainrot infecting me #but it's not NOT that #like at this point have they even MET properly??? #i shouldn't be planning yet another spinoff for this #and yet here we are and it's dangerously close to happening

[ultimumvitae]

me at first: wow i really love how shadow is written in idw! it's not perfect but it's so much better!

me watching shadow be turned into a zombot: oh

#honestly i don't even mind a more combative and angry shadow. the man is allowed to have ugly and illogical reactions to things w/ ptsd. #+ i can kinda be more ok with him being angry at sonic bc of the whole not letting him end mr. tinker thing. #i can very well see how that anger is justified in shadow's eyes. but. not him carelessly fighting zombots thinking he can't get infected. #but while he's not... really supposed to be AS good as sonic at the whole hero thing... he's not a total bonehead. #i feel like he'd at least consider the possibility considering it's not *really* a virus despite it's name. it's clearly a chemical thing. #which i assume the immunity he was created with doesn't account for lol and surely he'd at least THINK about that. #also just in general not crazy about how dismissive he's been of rouge. i know i know i knoW sega is being weird about team dark. #but to say they're not a team and 'not even friends' is insanity. and he wouldn't be dismissive of her anyway bc she's GOOD at what she doe #and shadow really only loses his patience with people when they're being stupid and hindering progress. #i have many feelings about shadow's characterization i'm sorry lol D: #out of chaos [ooc];

love that most (95+%) literature that talks about how to tighten loose skin at all speaks through the lens of vanity issues rather than quality of life issues

#eds loose skin gang #it DOES make me look ~60 lbs heavier which bothers me but it's not what I'm addressing #I mean like legitimate Complications And Problems like skin tears #how am I gonna deal with that when my skins loosening NOW and I'm not even 25 #what would my skin even look like at 30. 40. 60. 80 #alas all the medical treatments are considered cosmetic unless you're getting like infections so I'll just die I guess #also good time to remind ppl that collagen supplements do not work your stomach acid denatures the collagen and it doesn't remember how to #go back to being collagen after it's in your body

My bff’s bf said something stupid and misogynistic and it’s 3am and I’m realizing I should have been angrier in the moment lmao

#It was like kind of a joke? #I know it’s dumb but what the fuck was that #While talking about how you need to worry more about what you put in your vagina he said something about sitting on your balls being worse #And I was like ?????? Hello???? #In no version of reality where having a vagina and ovaries is going to be easier or less painful #I just mentioned how those aren’t even close and how you literally have to constantly worry about yeast infections and UTI #Now I wish I’d listed more things like just yearly gyno visits and Pap smears #IM JUST REMEMBERING #WE WERE JUST TALKING ABOUT HOW PEOPLE WERE STUPID ABOUT THINGS THEY DONT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT #SPECIFICALLY REFERRING TO COMMENTS ON VAGINAS AND VAGINAL HEALTH #AND THATS THE CONFIDENT ASS COMMENT HE GAVE LMAO FUCK #I was so exhausted but damn i hope I have the ability to point this out if he does it again #Like I think something like this has happened before and I’m deeply concerned #Like implying something is easier because of being a woman #He’s progressive but I get such a bad feeling he’s still picked up on some subtle incel shit

I gotta complain abt being a picky eater here for a sec cuz I'm lookin @ all this stuff on the breakfast menu and there's always the SAME ingredients in all these SAME food items and it would be SO much easier if I could just order food without having to think of all the stuff I DON'T want on my food cuz I always gotta put in so much effort to look into every single ingredient in every since food item that I order bcuz I DON'T LIKE MOST FOODS !!! SMHH !!

#mostly making a post abt this cuz there are ppl out there who think picky eaters are just childish and need to grow up #as if I'm CHOOSING to be a picky eater #and they call it childish cuz they think ppl just don't wanna be healthy and eat veggies and it's not THAT bad or whatever #THE THING IS! I FUCKING LOVE VEGETABLES!! THAT LITERALLY PROVES IT'S NOT PEOPLE JUST THROWING HISSY FITS !!!! #I literally LOVE fruits and veggies and I'm honestly not a big fan of candy like I enjoy it but I have a pretty low limit for em #like I could just eat tons of fruits and veggies no problem but candy makes me sick if I eat more than a few of em #snacks on the other hand like chips and nuts and granola and stuff are a different story #which btw my family does NOT have the same taste buds as me they are all SUPER unhealthy and I like the most healthy foods #not including my outer family members I mean immediate ones that I actually care abt and effect my food palete #ANYWAYS I will say I don't like tomatos that's one of the few I'm not a fan of I don't even really like ketchup that much #tho I have gotten better about spaghetti sauce which I'm sure people would CRY from how plain my pasta is lmao #the sauce is literally called tomato sauce it is LITERALLY tomato sauce it has nothing else in it and it has absolutely no chunks #probably the reason I never had sauce on my spaghetti for so long is cuz it always has CHUNKS in it or little leaf things that would crunch #which I like crunchy but only when it's MEANT to be crunchy #anyway all I'm sayin is it would be nice to get a breakfast burrito but I feel bad changing the order SO MUCH just for me to enjoy it #and most the time other ingredients will get in it regardless and I can't eat it anymore cuz that entire area is infected with the taste #even my Mom thinks I'm crazy for that 🙄 LISTEN IF YOU PUT PEPPERONI ON PIZZA THE FLAVOUR STICKS TO THE PIZZA #DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU TAKE IT OFF THE JUICES THE FLAVOUR IT GOT ON IT I CAN LITERALLY TASTE IT BRO !!!!! #or even a half and half situation if any pepperoni touched MY side of the pizza I am TASTING it and I cannot eat it #trust me it's not a mind thing it has been tested on me before and no one has tricked me into eating it bcuz I simply DO NOT LIKE IT !! #there is no trick to be had I can simply TASTE IT !! smh smh #anyway that is my rant abt being a picky eater quota met for the first half of the year #I have one more I have to make before the end of the year (just saying it'll likely happen is all lmao)

[jaegerbroshoe]

Okay so I finally watched the first episode but I gotta say…I’m a little disappointed?

Like, the chemistry between the characters and the intrigue of the opening from the games just didn’t translate through for me. There were some great lines/shots/transitions they got rid of or changed that I don’t understand why they didn’t include (e.g. “you should start helping out with the mortgage then”, solider noting that Sarah is a little girl and showing more hesitance, the news report transition between past and present).

It was nice getting a bit more backstory on some stuff but yeah, I don’t know. So far I think the game’s opening was a lot stronger.

#the explanation of how fungi can fuck us up with warmer global temperatures driving their evolution was very scary #and I did like the added scene of ellie tricking joel #but yeah idk I feel like even though they spent longer introducing sarah in the show her bond with joel was translated better in the game #like I didn’t get emotional at all during her death scene but every time I rewatch the clip from the game I do #so I don’t think it’s just because I was expecting it #I wish they kept the opening the same honestly #and tess just felt irrelevant here? #and also joel doesn’t come across as hardened #he looked so shook at having killed someone at the end of the episode #plus here he’s looking for tommy #and it’s interesting what they did with the fireflies locking up ellie #and ellie not really knowing marlene until now #I don’t remember that being the case in the game but I could be wrong #still showing ellie being held against her will does make the fireflies more of assholes here #like to me it will actually support the argument of her being coerced more at the end #as in sacrificing herself wasn’t really her idea #and that marlene manipulated her #P.S. why the fuck are the infected in the show so fast? they weren’t like that in the game and it came off as tacky imo #tlou show #the last of us #misc #my opinion

[hpdgirlfriend]

rash on my hand thats been here for at least a week still there and not better at all. im going to lose my mind

#first thing my mom told me to put on it: 0 improvement #second thing my mom told me to put on it: pretty sure this made it worse #thing im thinking about putting on it: 50/50 whether it helps or makes it significantly worse #but if it does get worse then i guess i find out its a skin infection? how did this even happen #what did i DO !!!!!
